HaploSearch: a tool for haplotype-sequence two-way transformation.

Mitochondrion

Department of Genetics, Faculty of Biology, University of La Laguna, La Laguna, Tenerife, Spain.

Published: March 2011

Comparison of available mitochondrial DNA data is some times hindered by the data presentation format. HaploSearch is a simple tool for transforming DNA sequences into haplotype data and vice versa, speeding up the manipulation of large datasets. Although designed for mitochondrial DNA, HaploSearch could be used with any kind of DNA type. HaploSearch program, detailed software instructions and example files are freely available on the web http://www.haplosite.com/haplosearch/.

Short and long-term effects of experimental varicocele.

Andrology

January 2025

Department of Surgery, Division of Urology, Human Reproduction Section, São Paulo Federal University, São Paulo, Brazil.

Background: Varicocele is associated with a progressive decrease in male fertile potential, but it has yet to be determined if the duration of varicocele is associated with altered sperm functional quality.

Objectives: This experimental study investigated the time-dependent effects of varicocele on spermatogenesis, sperm parameters, and sperm functional traits.

Materials And Methods: Thirty-five mature male Wistar rats (200 ± 25 g) were included.

Background: Mitochondria generate the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) necessary for eukaryotic cells, serving as their primary energy suppliers, and contribute to host defense by producing reactive oxygen species. In many critical illnesses, including sepsis, major trauma, and heatstroke, the vicious cycle between activated coagulation and inflammation results in tissue hypoxia-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, and impaired mitochondrial function contributes to thromboinflammation and cell death.

Methods: A computer-based online search was performed using the PubMed and Web of Science databases for published articles concerning sepsis, trauma, critical illnesses, cell death, mitochondria, inflammation, coagulopathy, and organ dysfunction.

Emergence of fungal hybrids - potential threat to humans.

Microb Pathog

January 2025

Cell Biology and Molecular Genetics, Yenepoya Research Centre, Yenepoya (Deemed to be University), Mangalore 575018, INDIA. Electronic address:

Fungal hybrids arise through the interbreeding of distinct species. This hybridization process fosters increased genetic diversity and the emergence of new traits. Mechanisms driving hybridization include the loss of heterozygosity, copy number variations, and horizontal gene transfer.

Exercising regularly promotes health, but these benefits are complicated by acute inflammation induced by exercise. A potential source of inflammation is cell-free DNA (cfDNA), yet the cellular origins, molecular causes, and immune system interactions of exercise-induced cfDNA are unclear. To study these, 10 healthy individuals were randomized to a 12-wk exercise program of either high-intensity tactical training (HITT) or traditional moderate-intensity training (TRAD).
